Hi guys got a problem I Was hoping someone could help me out with.

I just built a new system:

Intel i5 2500k
Mobo:ASUS P8Z68-V LX
GPU: ASUS ENGTX560 DCII OC/2DI/1GD5 - Geforce GTX 560 DCII OC - 1 G GDDR5
RAM: Corsair 4gb
PSU: Cooler Master GX Series 650W ATX


So in the few times I've taken out the gpu and reseated it, the time the system would acknowledge the gpu and use the gtx 560 as its primary. However if I leave it be for awhile and boot up the computer again the system completely ignores the gtx 560 and goes straight to the i5's integrated graphics. It has no recognition of the 560 and the drivers I've installed for it just say no card detected.

I've tried going into the bios and making the priority the 560 but so far it hasn't worked, I've also updated the BIOS but that didn't work either. If anyone could help me out I would greatly appareciate it. Thank you.

I'm thinking it has to be a bad graphics card but why it would work after being reseated. Switched slots didnt help and I pressed down pretty hard to make sure its snugly in there.
